Question

"Nine is greater than twice a number minus 3" can you do that into a inequality

Answer 1

Let n be a number.

The phrase "twice a number" can be represented as 2n.

The phrase "twice a number minus three" can be represented as 2n-3.

If nine is greater than twice a number minus three, we can write that sentence in algebraic language as follows:

`9>2n-3`

Which is the same as:

`2n-3<9`
